ViewMatch Pro reads a photo's true focal length, GPS and orientation and stands your camera exactly where the shot was taken — exteriors, interiors and drone photos alike. Then finish the shot: mask real-world foregrounds over your model and export presentation-ready images. The entire workflow, without ever leaving SketchUp.

A camera match that used to eat an afternoon of manual orbiting takes seconds — pick the photo, confirm, done.
Field of view computed from the photo's embedded focal length — not eyeballed. Built for work that gets scrutinized, from client reviews to public exhibits.
Match, fine-tune, pin, mask foregrounds and export final images — one workflow inside SketchUp. No Photoshop round-trips required.
A built-in Quick Start walks you through the whole flow, and guided placement means the first match works like the fiftieth.
Point ViewMatch at the original, unedited image — exterior, interior or drone shot — straight from the camera or phone.
Focal length, GPS, heading, tilt, drone elevation and capture time are decoded automatically.
Field of view, position and sun are set and a scene is saved. Fine‑tune with live dials, a pinned reference point and a zoomed magnifier.
Field of view derived from the photo's true focal length — not eyeballed.
On a geolocated model the camera drops onto the exact spot — including drone shots placed from the launch point and recorded elevation.
No GPS indoors? Guided placement matches interior photos from an approximate standing position.
Sets the model's date & time from the shot so sun and shadows line up.
Nudge position, aim and roll with adjustable increments — and pin an aligned point so it stays locked while you refine the rest.
Fade the photo over the view to align by eye, with a live zoomed magnifier for the fine work.
Paint the photo's real foreground — trees, fences, poles — back over your model with brush and polygon masks.
Blend, crop and export full‑resolution JPEG, PNG, TIFF — or a layered PSD with an editable mask.
Viewpoints are recorded as you work — step back to any earlier state or save one as its own scene.
A matched camera is half the job. Photo Finish composites your model INTO the photo: real foreground objects pass in front of the model, edges blend, and the result exports at the photo's full resolution.
Brush and polygon tools mask the photo's trees, fences and street furniture so they read in front of your model — with per‑edge feathering and full undo.
Line‑weight, brightness, contrast, saturation, noise and blur controls tune the model render to the photograph. Crop to standard or custom aspects.
Flattened JPEG / PNG / TIFF, or a layered PSD that opens in Photoshop with photo, model and an editable foreground mask on separate layers.
